Mr. Chairman. I thank the gentleman from California for raising this point and the chairman for his response. because indeed for those of us that have refugees in our area and those of us who do not have such circumstances maintain an interest hopefully in providing adequate funding. although the number of refugees may be reduced. the spendout program isvery questionable in terms of any appropriation reduction. So. it looks like we will be back. to engage the chairman. Mr. NATCHERS commitment. I wish I had the faith of the chairman and the administration in reduced cost figures in this particular program. but I am very pleased. and I hope the gentleman would yield to the chairman of the committee so that he might further respond to my concern that even though the number of refugees may be down. the dollar amount in terms of spend out is actually exceeding. and it looks like a shortfall in terms of our State and in terms of revenue from the Office of Refugee Resettlement.
